New Canadian 100 Dollar Bills – Feel Like Plastic, Smell Like Maple Syrup

Some people like the smell of money. Most people like the smell of maple syrup. If you like the smell of both, you’ll probably like the way the new Canadian $100 (one hundred dollar) bill smells.

$100 Bills – As Canadian as Maple Syrup

It has quite a few features with a plastic feel, some silver and clear areas, and yes, it has a faint fragrance of maple syrup. It doesn’t really feel like real money. It feels really slippery. These anti-fraud features are supposed to make it more difficult for counterfeiters to try to pull their slippery scams but one thing is probably still going to be an issue — most Canadian retailers don’t want $100 bills. Many won’t accept $50 dollar or $100 bills. I wonder if this will change anything…

What do you think of the look, feel,  and the smell of the new Canadian $100 bill?
